Was it built by an Italian company more famous for making something non-automotive?

I've researched the usual list of former marques, and there aren't too many which were still around at that time which weren't also car makers or aircraft makers.

Della Ferrera?

I've finished my list of companies which no longer exist but were active in 1939, and had no connections to the car or aero industries.

Long shot - Aermacchi?
